70’s Music Artists

Tuesday, December 23rd, 2008

Following the musical revolution in the 1960s, the next decade absorbed different influences and produced a mixture of genres. 70’s music artists represented many different styles. There was something for everyone, with disco, soft rock, progressive rock, punk and new wave, and more. There were many radio friendly artists that got a lot of airplay. The brother / sister duo, The Carpenters appealed to moms and dads, and their kids. Karen Carpenter’s voice was one of the best in pop. Country rock, as it was known, was a popular fusion and The Eagles had the most commercial success with their laid back vocals. In contrast, Heavy Metal was alive and well, particularly in the UK. Black Sabbath, Deep Purple and Judas Priest were exciting to watch live and commanded a huge following.

I’m going to go out and buy her CD right now.

PBS becomes a Missouri tourist

Wednesday, February 13th, 2008

The local PBS station wanted to do a special on Missouri so they loaded up the van and headed towards the state. On the first rest stop once they crossed the border they picked up a Missouri tourist guide and started looking at the attractions. They decided a trip to Branson might be just the thing as it was reasonably long drive and they could film quite a bit of the countryside and show how it changes from north to south. They started filming once they got to Kansas City showcasing the parts of big city seen as one drives along 435. When they exited on the south side they carefully documented how the city flows to the suburbs and how the suburbs flow into the country. Starting out was mostly prairie which slowly changed to more forest. The small towns were chronicled also. The further they went the more trees and hills there were and the views became more spectacular. They actually bypassed Branson showing the changing scenery as they drove up into the Ozark mountains. After having all that footage they returned to Branson and highlighted some of the shows and events there. Rather than a documentary I think they actually filmed a commercial for Missouri.

Brochure Printing- Where To Go

An Article on inexpensive Brochure Printing

Things have changed a lot in recent years now that printers are cheaper than ever. Because of this, people can do there own color copies and print them from home. More and smaller companies are doing their brochure printing all in house. Some people want full 4 color brochures while others need cheap color brochure printing, pardon me I meant low cost brochure printing. So In order to keep up, Kinko’s and the other large copy businesses have begun to offer cheaper copying and even in color.

Now, I wouldn’t say that they are cheap if you are only printing out one or two. It still can cost as much as a quarter per copy. Nonetheless, if you print in bulk like I do, it is much easier to get cheap color prints than ever before. But I’ve found that promoting events with brochures cost me about 60% less money than it used to. In any case whatever brochure services you use just make sure you compare prices and quality of work.

Psychedelic Album Covers Of The Sixties

Wednesday, January 10th, 2007

During the 1960’s and 1970’s, album covers tended toward conceptual protests of previous ideas of good cover design. Abstract psychedelic patterns were popularly tied in to this new concept. The “hippie” times were a period of mind expansion and discovery, characterized by demands for social and political reform. This was expressed through the medium of the album cover, with photographs of war contrasting with portrayals of aristocratic wealth. On a lighter note, “flower children”, nature, and Eastern religion were combined with psychedelic mind-blowing color-infused patterns.
